A friend had posted several pictures of owls and my wife has been really into owls lately so that definitely influenced this piece. Also I wanted to try a straight on view and play with symmetry. Bird of Prey was hatched from these influences. Plus owls eat groundhogs and I have had enough of winter. Don’t be surprised if you see this car in Punxsutawney.

I love to build models and I am a member of a bunch of model building groups on Facebook. It’s a great hobby, usually very relaxing, but there are times were trying to get those tiny little pieces to fit together can be more than a little maddening. That is what inspired this graphic.
